Some very unserious #engineering going on in the Quad as @uclmecheng @UCLBiochemEng1 and @uclchemeng compete for the Engineering Cup! – at Camden Town, London

Brilliant talk by @bayvel_p a #WomenInSTEM at @ucl, great advice EVER: "don't clean your house, don't iron shirts, pay someone to do it!" 👌🏼
And yes, 1 of the 3 men in the room asked "what about men, they have it hard too!" 🤦🏽♀️
I will be speaking here tomorrow - feel free to pop in if you are a woman working in STEM...I am not sure I know anything about the second M, though! poem2019.com/women-in-stemm

As this intense week finally winds down, I'd just like to say how much I appreciate my academic science collaborators - you are all wonderful: stimulating and synergistic, patient and forgiving, smart and creative. I couldn't do it without you.

So excited to speaking tonight about my feminist chatbot research @UAL_CCi and @feministintrnet (@fxfegha and @otheragent and @elena_sinel will be there!)

Many thanks to @SciInnovUnion @Ox_FEST @StAnnesCollege for a great event "Promoting Gender Equality in Research and Innovation". Good to hear from @HelenChristia19 about @DPAGAthenaSwan progress, and great use of event technology. A very good way to spend a Monday evening :-)

Ask Welfare and International Officer, Rothna, anything! Well, not quite anything –we’re looking for questions on welfare, wellbeing & mental health, your experiences of mental health and what you think needs to change here at UCL. #WorldMentalHealthDay #NotJustAnAwarenessDay

Friendly reminder that anybody can learn hard technical skills (I.e engineering, coding, VR etc). People who over emphasis the difficulty of it + insist you need to have some sort of innate talent / be an expert is exercising a form of gate keeping.

THREAD. Here's my list of things that have worked. It is longer than I thought it would be.
1.Reading loads about the topics I’m teaching.
2.Planning and scripting explanations.
3.Learning names and using them.
4.Apologising if I get a name wrong or mispronounce it.

Now actively looking for vacancies in adult stem cell research, assay development, process optimisation or science communication around London (City of London/Stevenage). I am qualified for all of the above, contact me for openings. #scicomm #womaninstem #assaydevelopment #MSCS

An #ERROR has crept into this obituary @thetimes - the late Sir Charles Kao was suprvised for his external University of London PhD by Harold Barlow @ucl @ucleeenews @uclnews @UCLEngineering whilst working at STL in Harlow - NOT @imperialcollege!! thetimes.co.uk/edition/regis…

Honoured to be awarded an Industrial Fellowship from @Royalcom1851 to progress our exosome research at @UCLBiochemEng1 and ReNeuron. #1851Awards bit.ly/2zBo45d

Was just looking at past @GeneticsSociety Curt Stern award winners; 19/20 are men 😮 All deserving (incl. this year's honoree @skathire), but that ratio does not reflect my experience of "outstanding human geneticists". The even more prestigious Allan award is something like 47:8
